Sandy/Ivy Bridge CPU support

[calmsacibis995]

On the README, it says that Brunch only supports Haswell CPUs and newer. But I have been able to successfuly install ChromeOS on my PC that has a Intel Core i5-3570. I have this question. The reason why 2nd/3rd gen Intel processors are not supported is because the rammus Chromebook has a Haswell processor, or it is something else, like driver support?

Brunch actually works almost fine on Ivy Bridge (except for the Android container; that's why the README says it's unsupported).
rammus is actually Kaby Lake if you're wondering; all the actual Haswell images were made EOL in August 2019.

Haswell ended with coral 126, not in 2019. If you want an updated haswell look at coral. @tejasraman I'd love your input on my other tread asking above arcvm and why kernel 6.x seems to be required except with rammus r116?
